[mkgmap-dev] Index and equally named cities

Thu Jun 2 14:49:39 BST 2011

So....

I've made a map on a Windows-Machine, using the same files I used on my Macbook and the nsis-compiler... And now it works...
Damn... So the problem comes from the gmapi-builder.
Anyone here who understand python to fix this problem?!
And sorry for bothering you with this problem. I've never expected that the problem comes from gmapi.

Cheers
Martin

>>> If a town is devided into 2 or more pieces, only streets could be find on the tile which contains the place-tag. Tested on Basecamp for Mac and my Garmin Oregon. On Mapsource it seems to work. I don't know how the index is generated (tile by tile or all-in-one), but I hope this helps you to find the problem.
